Prince William and Kate Middleton have just released the first official pictures of Princess Charlotte’s christening and they’re just as cute as you’d expect. According to the UK Daily Mail, the photos were taken at Sandringham House, which is Queen Elizabeth’s private residence in Norfolk. The pics were snapped by Mario Testino, who also made the photos for Princess Diana’s final official shoot.
Kensington Palace chose to put out a formal family picture as well as three informal ones. Naturally, everyone was anxious to see Princess Charlotte on her special day. A total of 21 guests attended the actual christening at the Church of St. Mary Magdalene. Unfortunately, Prince Harry is busy working as a wildlife ranger in Africa and wasn’t able to attend the event.
Princess Charlotte’s big brother was all smiles as he joined in the fun. Prince George is known for being a little rambunctious at times, but word has it he was the perfect gentleman once the ceremony got underway. Meanwhile, Kate Middleton was looking stunning as usual. The royal family just can’t seem to take a bad picture.
A spokesperson for Kensington Palace issued a statement for Prince William and Kate Middleton. It read: “The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and their whole family had a wonderful day on Sunday and were delighted to share the special occasion with the thousands of people who came to Sandringham. They are very happy to share these photographs and hope that everyone enjoys them as much as they do.”
